US 2020/0090394 A1 · AVATAR FACIAL EXPRESSION GENERATING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF AVATAR FACIAL EXPRESSION GENERATION FOR FACIAL MODEL

Abstract

An avatar facial expression generating system and a method of avatar facial expression generation are provided. In the method, user data relating to sensing result of a user is obtained. A first and a second emotional configurations are determined. The first and second emotional configuration maintain during a first and a second duration, respectively. A transition emotional configuration is determined based on the first emotional configuration and the second emotional configuration, in which the transition emotional configuration maintains during a third duration. Facial expressions of an avatar are generated based on the first emotional configuration, the transition emotional configuration, and the second emotional configuration, respectively. The third duration exists between the first duration and the second duration. Accordingly, a normal facial expression on an avatar would be presented while encountering the emotion transformation.
